Haven’t seen anyone mention Cinema Paradiso or The Good the Bad and the Ugly. Both are wildly different. Ennio Morricone is a genius.

There’s also The Incredibles - Michael Giacchino The Greatest Showman - Various Artists
Saving Private Ryan - John Williams
The Prince of Egypt - Hans Zimmer
The Gospel of John - Jeff Dann (great middle eastern vibe)

An enclave is defined as an area within a territorial boundary. So an exclave is an area outside of a boundary with ties to the main territory

Essentially, Apple is trying to realize the security advantages of a microkernel without tossing the monolithic aspects of XNU.

“In iOS 18, exclaves refer to specific resources that are separated from the main iOS kernel (XNU) and cannot be accessed by it, even if the kernel is compromised,"

Pretty neat hardening of the OS. Decent write up that isn’t too deep in the weeds.

This is what works for me. If I’m productive in things I want to do, instead of have to do, I’m fulfilled and okay with going to sleep on Sunday night and not thinking about it. If I feel like I waste the weekend then I have an issue mentally with going to work. Mind, if I’m exhausted and want to spend the weekend watching YouTube or whatever then I’m okay with it. It all depends on mindset.

So a projector, just like DLP. That’s the backlight technology in this case. Instead of an LCD screen being integrated into the projector itself, it’s on a larger screen in front of it. Same difference as far as lighting technology goes.

Song writing is hard. Having a great voice and getting the training needed to be great is as well. It’s rare they both go together and are great. Doesn’t matter to me.

A better one would be, “A Projector With Contrast You Haven’t Seen For Years.”

That was once a lot more true than nowadays since the software has ways to mitigate the degradation. Once you’ve gone to a display with true black like OLED, nothing no else compares honestly. They even make movie theater screens look bad. It’s not possible to have a projector give you true black. Better contrast sure, but not true black. There is a limit to contrast anyway since human eyes can only see so bright.

There’s a reason the rich don’t send their kids to public schools.

Look at where their kids go to school. The rich never skimp on that.
